The Center for Diversity Innovation at the University at Buffalo named Devonya N. Havis, PhD, a Distinguished Visiting Scholar for the 2021-22 academic year.
The center generates research on diversity, equity and inclusions, which it then uses to communicate diversity and inclusion best practices through educational materials, trainings and consultations. Members are selected based on excellence in their fields, their commitment to student mentoring, and the ability to influence the university and its local communities.
Havis is an associate professor of philosophy and women and gender studies at Canisius. Her scholarship explores issues in the critical philosophy of race, contemporary continental philosophy and critical disability studies.
